Abstract of Information Available
A total of two cultural items have been requested for repatriation.
The two objects of cultural patrimony are a human effigy mask and an
engraved gorget. Object ID #1083 Box E is a human effigy mask with bird
head from Alabama. Object ID #1081 is an engraved gorget from Hale
County, Alabama. Both were given to the college in 1976 as part of the
Paul Cory Collection.
Determinations
The Culver-Stockton College has determined that:
<bullet> The two objects of cultural patrimony described in this
notice have ongoing historical, traditional, or cultural importance
central to the Native American group, including any constituent sub-
group (such as a band, clan, lineage, ceremonial society, or other
subdivision), according to the Native American traditional knowledge of
an Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian organization.
<bullet> There is a reasonable connection between the cultural
items described in this notice and The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma.
Requests for Repatriation
Additional, written requests for repatriation of the cultural items
in this notice must be sent to the authorized representative identified
in this notice under ADDRESSES. Requests for repatriation may be
submitted by any lineal descendant, Indian Tribe, or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice who shows, by a
preponderance of the evidence, that the requestor is a lineal
descendant or a culturally affiliated Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization.
Repatriation of the cultural items in this notice to a requestor
may occur on or after September 20, 2024. If competing requests for
repatriation are received, Culver-Stockton College must determine the
most appropriate requestor prior to repatriation. Requests for joint
repatriation of the cultural items are considered a single request and
not competing requests. Culver-Stockton College is responsible for
sending a copy of this notice to the Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations identified in this notice and to any other consulting
parties.
